I was going 60 MPH when all of a sudden the battery light comes on. I pull in the clutch and it dies.
(1) The instrument cluster goes dead THE CLOCK STAYED ON!
(2) I push it home and disconnect the battery THE CLOCK TURNS OFF!
(3) I had been riding on washboard dirt roads the day before.
This is something electrical I think.
The manual doesnt have "engine dies abruptly at high speed" in the troubleshooting section.
What are the suspects?
What would shut down the engine and instrument cluster but leave the clock on?
Also, I checked the fuses, ALL OF THEM ARE THE WRONG VALUE, 25 AMPS INSTEAD OF 10, 15 AMPS INSTEAD OF 7.5 ON ALL OF THEM.
I bought this bike used last summer, dont know what the previous owners mechanic did.
Thanks, Geoff in Kansas!
